FlowComments

Simple cards to add comments to flows

This app enables adding comment cards to your flows.
They are just cards with text, no functionality at all

  • Condition cards (And… section) are always true and do not influence the way your flows runs

  • Action cards (Then… section) do not contain actions and do not influence the way your flows run

    Use the cards to add comments, notes or remarks in your flows.

2 types of flow cards

  • Comment (Notitie)
    To clarify the flow
  • Fixit (Oplossen)
    To point to flows that needs a better solution
    (Specific type makes it easier to search and find…)

Examples:

Quite a nice idea. Certainly fills a need Athom has missed to provide a solution for up until now.

#7

Yep. I’m definitely interested

As already suggested, put me on your list for testing.

#10

I say … Finally to this one :wink: Can add me also for testing.

#11

Very nice. I’m really interested too!

Thanks for the nice responses.
Good to hear it fills a need!

Still some work todo. Its seems to work fine. But when pressing the test button in the flows the cards get exclamationmarks (error). Figuring out what goes wrong…
(1st time I create an app, so learning on the job)

TOP and clearly missed so far !!

#15

Great idea, could use something like this as well! I don’t have time for testing, but when the app hits the Homey App store I will download it for sure!

#16

Yeehow, I published my app for testing.
But I do need some help now…

Accoding to the developer guidelines my dashboard should provide a link for testing.

Found out the link will be available after 1st screening/approval by athom.
When it is available I will sent a pm to the people in this thread that mentioned they want to test.

Looking forward to that, thanks!

#19

I can test as well if you like

#20

My app is now availble for testing.
You can find it in the homey community store

Be aware:

  • this is not the Athom app store
  • this app is only tested by me, so no other used tested it
  • it is therefore not released in the Athom app store yet
  • Also not reviewed by Athom yet…
    Here’s the link to the app in the store
